Metallurgists have long been accustomed to a trade-off between yield strength and tensile
ductility. Extending previously known strain-hardening mechanisms, the emerging multi …

High (or medium)-entropy alloys (H/MEAs) are complex concentrated solid solutions prone
to develop the chemical short-range orders (CSROs), as an indispensable structural …

Abstract Short-range ordering (SRO), its evolution in the equiatomic Cr-Co-Ni medium-
entropy alloy (MEA), and its effects on mechanical properties were investigated by …

High saturation magnetic flux density (Bs) of soft magnetic materials is essential for
increasing the power density of modern magnetic devices and motor machines. Yet …

Chemical short-range order in disordered solid solutions often emerges with specific heat
treatments. Unlike thermally activated ordering, mechanically derived short-range order …

Multicomponent alloys of the Fe-Mn-Co-Cr-Ni family with face-centered cubic (fcc) structure
exhibit many excellent properties. However, they usually show limited yield strength, which …

Interpreting diffuse intensities in electron diffraction patterns can be challenging in samples
with high atomic-level complexity, as often is the case with multi-principal element alloys. For …

Herein, we showed that controlled additions of Al, which provided a certain degree of B2
ordering, resulted in a∼ 37%-enhancement of both yield strength and uniform elongation in …

Refractory high-entropy alloys (RHEAs) are regarded as promising candidates of the next
generation superalloys, mainly benefitting from the high strength at high temperatures …

Controlling precipitates in spatial density and size distribution is essential for tailoring the
microstructure and mechanical properties through precipitation hardening. We herein …
